In reply to the discussion: This discussion may draw blood: I just won a Chili Cook-Off [View all]KamaAina
(78,249 posts)39. Oddly enough, Texas chili aficionados agree with you
about the beans, at any rate. Beans are strictly verboten at Terlingua, the Super Bowl of chili.
Oddly enough, one of my FB peeps here in the Bay Area just posted a request for Cincy chili. And get this -- a guy we know up in Sac worked on political campaigns there, so if anyone knows where to find it out here, it'd be him.
The Yale dining halls serve, or did in my day, a dish referred to by one and all as "Cincinnati five-way chili" , but I doubt it's authentic. And wouldn't you know it, the one and only time I ever changed planes at the Cincy airport, it was early morning, so Gold Star wasn't open yet.

That is another dish altogether = Chili Spaghetti, where the east meets the west

The full name of the dish is also the list of ingredients: Chile con carne means chilli with beef.

I'm okay with that. I'll take either, but the first line I'd go to would be the just-meat one.
